<p><i>For a more thorough installation walk-through refer to the Installation help file inside of the Hokie Sensor folder.</i></p><br><br>

<b>Installation Steps</b><br><br>
<p>
1)  Double click HokieSensor.exe<br><br>
2)  Go through the installation steps.<br><br>
3)  Make sure the latest JRE or JDK is installed onto your computer.<br><br>
This can be found at http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp <br><br>
4)  Plug in the device.  If the the message "cannot find MSP430 UART application driver" pops up go to step 5 if not skip to step 6.<br>
5) Goto start->control panel->Device manager->Ports(COM & LPT).  Click on the unknown comm device(should have a yellow ! mark) and click on update driver.  
Click to Browse my computer for driver software and click browse.  The location is the driver folder which was installed with Hokie Sensor and should be 
inside the Hokie Sensor folder.<br><br>
6. Next we must move the 3 RXTX files inside the java folder<br><br>
<i>note: Not all java directories are the same.  To be safe its a good idea to copy the three files to each and every java folder but the default folder should be 
C:\Program Files\Java\jre7 but if problems arise then copy and pasting into other java folders i.e. C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_15 and  C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7 
might help.  All examples will use the first path as an example.</i><br><br>
a)  Copy and paste the rxtxParallel.dll and rxtxSerial.dll files to the bin folder(C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\) .<br>
b)  Copy and paste the RXTXcomm.jar file to the lib\ext\ folder (C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\lib\ext\).<br><br>
7.  Double click the Hokie Sensor.jar shortcut or file and it should be ready to receive data.<br>
